This sounds exactly like the Zuckerman of Sarah Wynn-Williams’ Careless People. Recommend this book as a must read, even though the author herself is also not particularly endearing

For the first time in my life, I ticked the option to say I would like to speak before the committee. I owe my safety and freedom to be the type of woman I choose to be thanks in large part to members of the trans and nonbinary community. I will not let my identity be weaponised to harm them.

If you’re a NZCorp & the owner sits on the rich list, pay your execs exorbitant salaries but contract out the staff making your money so you don’t have to pay holiday pay, sick leave or maintain the equipment they use to make your money, imo you’re a rubbish company and a rubbish employer. #nzpol

It’s called sexual assault and another man walks because a judge thinks men’s careers are worth more than our safety. “A harness racing trainer who “repeatedly mauled” a teenage stable hand has successfully appealed his convictions after a court found the price of losing his career was too high.”

David Seymour has been an MP for 11 years. Saying he doesn’t know what government departments do is, taken at face value, a statement of complete incompetence. If I didn’t know how my workplace did things after a decade I sure as hell wouldn’t act like it’s anyone else’s fault.

You will see this forced displacement mischaracterized as an “evacuation.” It is not. Israel is methodically committing genocide. They assassinated the entire Al Jazeera team of journalists in Gaza City before undertaking the final phase of ethnic cleansing in this area so the world cannot see.
